Contributing
Contributing means extending, testing, translating, applying or disputing the framework in a form others can examine. Each perspective remains signed, dated and citable, and is published beside the argument it addresses.
Ways to contribute
Research or evidence
Test a function, measure a condition or document where observation breaks down.
Case study
Apply the framework to an institution, information environment or public question.
Translation
Carry the work into another language while preserving version, citation and defined terms.
